Abstract

The effect of various salts on the saline alkali soils were saturated with IN solutions of Sodium Chloride, Sodium Sulphate, Soidium Carbonate, Calcium Chloride, Calcium Carbonate and Magnesium Sulphate also a mixture of these solutions with the same concentration. It was found that some salts present in the soil have great effect on the hydraulic conductivity of the soil. Whereas others act as aggregate former of the soil. That improves the physical properties of the soil.
